2023 World Wrestling tournament...

[ILLINIWrestlingBlog]

Mat D was fire! Jacarra with the 7-2 win over the Indian. Ukraine beat the Z country (no handshake, thank you). 

And Musukaev with the touch fall over Otoguro, who is in reality, Rei Higuchi after a big meal. Musky's combination wrestling is out of this world.

@LJB or @Husker_Du some elaboration would be swell. I heard grumblings about weighins but honestly equated it to whining…

Now you’re throwing shots at Serbia/Micic…

Happy to be convinced otherwise. Here’s to Micic weighing 74 tomorrow morning and 79 at match time…

LBJ is always making wild claims and touting his "insider" knowledge, but never provides anything to back it up or even elaborate on his claims. You just have to trust him. His claims against Micic are despicable unless he can back it up. (I fully agree with him on Taylor's smarminess, however.)

I like that for Lee. If Lee loses to Iran I like irans chances against musakaev more than otoguro 

100% But I'm wondering if Mamedov is going to have something to say vs Mus

[Dark Energy]

Ok. Mus with TD.  mus with a big 4 pointer.  Otoguru stunned?  Sits out of bounds.  Won’t get up.  Ref calls injury time.  Coach and trainer come out.  Trainer is like … I don’t know what is wrong.  Ref telling Oto to stand up.  Won’t.  Eventually does.  Ref tells oto to go into par terre.  Oto saying something.  Japan coach won’t get off mat.  Coach gets yellow card.  Oto won’t go down.  Goes to head table and pleads some case.  They say get your freaking ass to the middle of mat.  He says no.  Lowers his knee pads and forfeits.

Someone pls explain what happened here.

Agree. But I’m thinking Lee will do it. Something in the NLWC has got them at their best.

Man I missed that. I thought when he was patting the mat he was calling the bodylock takedown a fall.

That is what was called??  Wow.  Ok.  That explains the drama.  Wow.  Ok thanks.

[Gantry]

Musukaev must be on the patch, dude is wrestling into the second period now.  Really impressive win, not sure that was a fall but I'm certainly not an expert on the freestyle quick pin. 

[Wrestleknownothing]

Ref slapped his two hands together without getting on the mat and called a pinfall. On the board as VFA. JB announced it as touche.

[Spladle08]

I'm sticking with Mamedov, I think, to come out of the top half of the bracket

[Grecojones]

Meanwhile Alieve loses the battle for life falls to his back widening the razor thin paper cut of a  lead to a gaping wound of a gap. Tough match

[Spladle08]

Ochir* obviously from the bottom

[Dark Energy]

I did see the pin situation.  Not mad.  Saw ref call it but didn’t notice the confirmation.  Wow (again)

he challenged a singlet pull and won it.

there was an inadvertent pull in there. so stupid. it was meaningless.

If it was Mat A it was a reversal of  a TD and a penalty for a singlet pull.

[Spladle08]

Ohhhh

[Spladle08]
